Blueberry Muffin Cheesecake Cookies & {Giveaway CLOSED}

Easy Blueberry Muffin Cheesecake Cookies that start with a muffin mix! #sponsored

Today I have super easy cookie recipe to share with y'all! These Blueberry Muffin Cheesecake Cookies start with a Martha White muffin mix and a few pantry staples. I love using using muffin mixes to make something other than just muffins.  

In the past I've made cakes, cookies, cobblers, and trifles. Each of those recipes start with a muffin mix, a little imagination, and whatever pantry staples I have on hand. You would be surprised at all the recipes combinations you can come up with.  

If you love blueberry muffins then you're going to love these cookies. These blueberry cookies have a soft cake like texture like a muffin, but in a cookie form. I think the addition of the white chocolate chips and cream cheese take these cookies over the top.  

For this recipe I used the NEW Martha Whites Gluten Free Blueberry Muffin Mix. This is the first time I have ever used a gluten free muffin mix for baking, and they taste just as good as the regular Martha White mixes.  

I have several readers that are always on the look out for gluten free options when it comes to desserts and treats especially when a recipe requires a mix. The New Martha White Gluten Free Mixes come in blueberry, chocolate chocolate chip, and sweet yellow cornbread & muffin mix.  I hope you'll give these new mixes a try especially if you follow a gluten-free diet.  

If blueberry is not your thing choose a different flavor. Martha White also has non gluten free muffin mix varieties in the following flavors, strawberry, strawberry cheesecake, and wild berry. If using a non gluten free mix all purpose flour can be substituted for gluten free flour.
